Hey! So I wanted to do this forever... Oneshots of things that should've happened in the summer that didn't :D Tell me what you guys think?

The soft sound of music attempted to relax Elena, who was adding another blanket to her bed, making a total of 4 blankets. Despite it being summer, too many things were happening to warm her. Sliding into bed again, Elena closed her eyes for the hundredth time that night, trying to let sleep overcome her.

It wasn't working. Frustrated, Elena turned the music up slightly louder, trying to drown herself with it. She thought of writing in her diary, something that helped her sort her feelings out so many times, but she rejected the idea. What was she suppose to write? Oh, my ex boyfriend is on the loose with Klaus, the oldest vampire ever. Too make it worse, I've developed feelings for my ex boyfriend's older brother, who has been more than helpful lately.

Yeah, not to comforting, Elena thought. Flipping over on her bed with a huff, Elena tightly closed her eyes. She hoped for a picture of flowers but instead got a picture of both Salvatore brothers.

"Ugh!" Elena screamed, burying her face into her pillow, inhaling the scent of her lavender scented shampoo.

"Frustrated?" a familiar voice asked, making Elena stop in the middle of her mini crisis.

She slowly lifted her head up, shifting positions to see Damon standing near her (now) open window, a smirk on his gorgeous face. A small blush crept up from her neck, threatening to spread across her cheeks.

"Oh, uh," she stuttered, avoiding his intense gaze. "A bit."

He walked towards her, sitting on the edge of her bed. "It's 1 o'clock at night. What's got you up?"

Elena crossed her arms across her chest, studying him. "It's 1 o'clock at night. What are you doing here?"

Damon chuckled. "I was with Alaric, looking at any leads on Stefan. Heard you up, decided to check on you."

Elena felt slightly stupid - of course his reason is reasonable. "Through the window?"

"Well, Alaric wouldn't exactly approve of me going up here." Damon winked at her, causing her to throw a pillow at him and just roll her eyes.

"So why can't you sleep?" Damon asked seriously, in a more quiet voice.

Elena sighed, falling into her pillow that was not thrown. "Too many thoughts, none of them good."

Damon moved so he was lying beside her, moving a stray of her dark hair away from her face. "We'll get him back."

Elena felt herself relax into his touch, something she hasn't been able to do lately. "I think there's a reason why Klaus wanted Stefan as his partner."

Damon raised an eyebrow. "I don't think there's anything going on between them two, if that's what you're worried about."

Elena giggled, the sound making Damon smile slightly. "You know what I mean."

Damon shrugged, his hand still stroking her cheek softly. "Maybe."

Elena stared into Damon's blue eyes, feeling way too comfortable for how she should be feeling. She felt Damon's leg pressed against hers, his body very close to hers.

"Do you ever feel guilty?" her small voice asked, leaning in even closer to Damon.

Damon's hand rested on Elena's cheek. "Guilty for what?"

Elena felt another blush trying to creep its way up. "For feeling the way you do."

Damon raised his eyebrows in surprise. "All the time," he finally answered.

Elena yawned, resisting the urge to snuggle up against Damon and finally sleep. However, she nodded her head in agreement. "Me too."

"For being in love with Stefan?" Damon's eyebrows came together in confusion.

Normally, Elena wouldn't admit this out loud. But she wasn't thinking right as she corrected him. "For being in love with you."

Elena watched Damon's eyes widened as she realized what she said. But what could she say? She was in love with him. She can't just take the words back.

"You're tired, Elena. You're not thinking right," Damon said, but seemed to be convincing himself rather than her.

"Yeah, I'm tired. Probably why I said it. But it's still true." Elena felt confident with her answer, knowing it was right.

Damon's face was inches from hers, his blue eyes staring at her lips. He glanced back up at Elena, waiting for her invitation.

Doing the one thing she's wanted to do since she met him, she wrapped an arm around his neck, bringing his lips to meet hers. His arm wrapped around her, his hand resting on her lower back. His other hand was still resting on her cheek, slowly stroking it. For a minute, both of them felt completely safe as they shared a moment neither of them wanted to end.

When they broke apart, their lips still lingered close to each other. Damon kissed Elena's cheek before she snuggled up to him, letting her nightmares vanish. As she closed her eyes, she only heard one last thing from Damon as he wrapped his arms around her.

"I love you."

So please tell me if I should add more oneshots to this! Each one won't have anything to do with each other, so the next oneshot will be completely different from this.

Review?
